I actually quite like Birthday. Don't Pass Me By's a decent little number too.

As for the worst Beatles song, What's the New Mary Jane is pretty bloody annoying.

Shame on whoever said Blue Jay Way and Within You Without You

The worst Beatles song is The Long and Winding Road. I hate it.

I'l agree that it's pretty overrated, but I'd hardly call it the worst. What don't you like about it?

It's overproduced and lyrically riddled with cliches. It almost sounds like the kind of song they would have written had they reunited in the 80s or something.

That song was really overproduced by Phil Spector. In my opinion, it doesn't really fit with the rest of Let It Be.

That's the one I can't stand also. It's an audio sedative.

Very. I think the song is horrible and paved a way for the wave of vapid pop ballads to come in the 70s and on into the 80s.
I understand that McCartney himself was upset about the disgusting production with all that brass and strings and I'm sure it would be better without that. But the song as it appears on the album is extremely bad. To me it's easily the worst song the band made.

Within You Without You is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE

I would have to say that Here There And Everwhere is the worst
